Online booking now available for the BAA Christmas Lecture meeting



We are pleased to advise that it is now possible to book places for the BAA 
Christmas Lecture, to be held in London on 2015 December 12, through the BAA 
online shop.



Full details of the meeting arrangements are on the website.  As announced 
in the October Journal, the Christmas Lecture will be given by Professor 
Gerry Gilmore of the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, on the topic of 
‘Gaia: the billion star surveyor’.  Other talks will be given by Dr Lucie 
Green (UCL): ‘At the edge: how leaving the solar system can tell us more 
about the Sun?’ and Nick James: ‘Sky notes for December and January’.



The meeting is free for BAA members and members of BAA-affiliated societies 
who book before November 20.  The cost for non-members, and anyone who 
arrives on the day without having booked beforehand, is £5. Book your place 
online at www.britastro.org/xmaslecture2015.



Our thanks are due to Dominic Ford, our Webmaster, for his hard work in 
setting up this useful online facility, which in addition to booking by 
post, should be available in future for most BAA and Section meetings that 
need to be pre-booked.



Best wishes
